Is this motherboard compatible with Ryzen 5000 series processors?

Yes, this motherboard is compatible with Ryzen 5000 series processors.

Does this motherboard have a PCIE 5.0 slot for future-proofing?

No, this motherboard does not have a PCIe 5.0 slot.

it appears the description is wrong, says it has one M.2 slot but images show two. The one above the PCIE x16 slot is noted M.2A CPU (pcie 4.0) and the one below is M.2B sb (pcie 3.0). Placing question mark as it is a field requirement...so (?)

The product description does mention two M.2 connectors: one is M2A_CPU, which supports PCIe 4.0 x4/x2 SSDs, and the other is M2B_SB, which supports PCIe 3.0 x2 SSDs. Therefore, the description is accurate regarding the number of M.2 slots.
